One of your Crazy Coaches Cross-Training

Just beginning Unicycle lessons. Yes, unicycle the one tire bike. Last night was our first class. I mastered getting on it, while holding onto the wall :)

Jonathan our instructor, said the key to riding a unicycle is keeping the chest open and leading from the core.

Once again, movement comes from the core and the chest is kept open.

I think I'm seeing a theme across sports.

I'm also taking unicycle lessons. Someday someone will ask, "Is there a unicyclist here?" And I will get to say yes, all thanks to core strength.

something else to do to while away the time - or should I say, as a warm-up - during dragon boat festivals... in pigtails...
This I have to see!
